Capitalization

In this unit we covered six of the rules of capitalization:

  1. capitalize the first word in a sentence
  2. capitalize the word "I"
  3. capitalize the first word in a direct quote
  4. capitalize proper nouns
  5. capitalize the names of the days of the week and the names of months
  6. capitalize titles and names of family relationships when they are used in front of a name


Prepositions

Here are some common prepositions:


	at			by			for

	from			in			into

	on			to			with

Prepositions are words which show the relationship between words. Sometimes this relationship has to do with location (is spatial) and sometimes this relationship has to do with time (is temporal). Here are some examples:

  SPATIAL:

	The salt shake is on the table.
	The cat is hiding in the laundry.
	The umbrella is over the table.

  TEMPORAL:

	Sam left after the game.
	Joe put his spikes on before the race.
	Jack ate a lot of candy during the movie.
